I *strongly* doubt that. Properties are designed to be transparent to
user code that access atrributes through the usual dotted name
notation precisely so that class code can be changed from
x = ob
to
x = property(get_x, set_x, del_x)
without changing user code.
He was talking about C# with that statement. In C#, the compiled code
differs depending on whether you use a property or an attribute. Or at
least that's how I interpreted it.
Checking back, I see now that Luis Z. went from Python
"It boggles me when I see python code with properties that only set and
get the attribute, or even worse, getters and setters for that
purpose. " to C#, and that Duncan was seemingly responding to the C#
part. If C# is like that, how inconvenient.
You are of course correct as to how Python does it.
I guess I am spoiled ;-).
